None of these loans were in default during this reporting period. One loan of approximately $12 million to the Bloor Street Transformation Project was fully repaid during this period. Regular monitoring makes it possible to identify potential financial risks, and to take action to avoid or mitigate potential losses. This report recommends a three-year term extension (to 2025) of an outstanding capital loan of $4.048 million to Lakeshore Arena Corporation. This entity is currently undertaking a strategic planning exercise, the result of which may result in a recommended restructuring of outstanding loan balances, and therefore it is prudent to allow for the completion of this exercise before undertaking any third-party refinancing. Additionally, this report recommends the provision of a letter of guarantee by the City, on behalf of Toronto Seniors Housing Corporation, to OMERS. This letter of guarantee would be for up to 120 days of projected employer and employee OMERS contributions to be made by TSHC, currently estimated at $1.34 million, plus associated costs.
